This channel 4 logo was the first one ever made in 1982 to 1996.
Channel 4 became the 4 channel in 1982, there was only three channels before and so there was not much variety, the channels were BB1, BB2 and ITV.Channel 4 was very different to the other channels because they showed progammes which were cutting egde and none of the other channels have shown this before.
Channel Four started to produce British films that appealed to different types of
audiences,the first was Walter which was mad in 1982 and directed by Stephen Frears. By 1984 Channel Four had co-produced over 20 films, these films has a shot called Film on four which is now a different channel called Film4.Channel Four films include 'Ghosts', 'Venus', 'Deep Water', and 'The Last King of Scotland and the latest film which has been a big success is Slumdog Millionaire which won 8 Oscars and cost roughly £8.7 million. Channel 4 has a couple of television channels which are Film4, E4, More4 and 4Music which means they can advertise their film productions which means they dont have to pay to get it advertised. The channel also has a website which means they can also advertise their films that are in the making without any charge. There are also many other advertisments that Channel4 can do such as interview casts from the film talking about it.
